Dunlap's Restaurant

Fabulous service, the waiter was very nice. Drinks came immediately after we ordered them. Food came 20 minutes later. Very great service and the food was good. Due to the economic inflation, the portions are a lot smaller and that's what is really holding this place back. Food quality is worth the price but quantity is lacking.

Disclaimer: I am not a chef and these comments are based on my own likes and dislikes. I make all attempts to be fair and provide explanations for my decisions. Please visit this establishment to form your own opinion. It has been quite a few years since I have visited Dunlap's. I enjoyed seeing the stylish decor which comes with most upscale restaurants, not a small diner in the town of Gettysburg. Breakfast consisted of chipped beef with a side of hashbrowns with added onion. I understand restaurants change ingredients to have their food stand out as a different twist on a recipe, however in my opinion, this recipe was a big fail. A thin gravy totally missed the basic element of a great SOS which is the rich creaminess brought together by rue of butter, flour and cream/milk. This had the taste and appearance of chopped beef mixed with last night's chicken gravy. Settling for a couple of eggs as a replacement, I ordered 2 over medium with toast. Not all toast is the same and theirs is delightful!! Crisps edges with the center softened by the richness of butter. Yum! The eggs on the other hand were barely over easy with the uncooked whites mixing with the center yoke. I now remember why we had chosen other restaurants in town over visiting Dunlaps for breakfast. Perhaps lunch or dinners are better?

We ate here twice while in Gettysburg because it was right next to our hotel and the breakfast was very good. We felt like the lunch and dinner options weren’t really anything special, a lot of deep fried options. The inside looks newly remodeled and resembles a modern diner. The desserts are house made and looked really good. The cheesecake is very cream cheesy, like my mom used to make. If we ever find ourselves in the area, I’d eat here again for breakfast!

A great place to eat, at a reasonable price. The experience in the restaurant depends on the waiters.it can be awesome or can be horrible. I've experienced both in the last 5 times I was there. when you have a good waiter you will have fast service, good drinks, warm food. Just awesome! If you have a not-so-good one (which lately I experience a lot), your drinks won't come one time or not at all, food will be waiting in the kitchen and will serve to you cold. I hope you guys will have a great experience!
